Here's an interesting little ditty I just ran across. Sounds like something Maymay might do.
Teen Accused Of Plotting To Poison Punch At Prom
Friends Notify Teachers, Police
April 29, 2002
VILLISCA, Iowa -- A teenager from Villisca has been arrested and charged with administering a dangerous substance.
Investigators said Robert Dumler, 15, threatened to poison the punch bowl at the Villisca High School prom on Saturday night.
Police said Dumler was unhappy with several fellow students. Officers said he wanted to make them sick and possibly kill them.
Dumler allegedly solicited help from other students to carry out his plan, according to police. Those students contacted teachers, parents and police.
Officers confiscated a vial from one of the students. The student said Dumler gave the vial to him.
The vial contained about 2 to 3 ounces of a liquid. It was sent to Des Moines for testing
Dumler was arrested Friday night and has been charged with one count of terrorism, which is a felony. He is being held in Montgomery County. His case will be handled in the juvenile courts in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
Dumler was originally charged with terrorism. That was changed to administering a dangerous substance. Montgomery County Attorney Bruce Swanson said the circumstances of the allegations against Dumler did not fit the original terrorism charge, which requires firing a weapon or using an explosive.
